AMSSM Foundation Research Grant Awards ($50,000/yr.) – AMSSM Members Only. The purpose of the Research Grant Award program is to foster original scientific investigations by members of AMSSM. Research proposals that investigate issues within the broad discipline of sports medicine will be considered, including clinical practice, injury prevention and rehabilitation, basic science, epidemiology and education. To be eligible, the primary investigator must be an AMSSM member. The grand application, additional instructions and information will be available in the summer of the grant year.
To be eligible, the primary investigator must be an AMSSM member.
If you are interested in completing an application you must be logged into the AMSSM site. The link to the AMSSM Foundation Research Grant Application, additional information and instructions are restricted to members only and viewing the link requires you to be logged into AMSSM. |
